I interviewed with Kim, of Mom's Best Friend. An interesting article, still more on the "mom" side of things, rather than the nanny.

Honest in posting

I'm just a bit more cautious about what I'm writing down today. Not that anything I that I written is slanderous, or vulgar. It's honest, to the point, and usually reflects more about how I view myself, and the environment around me. I do not viciously attack anyone, do not call out names, and for the most part, speak in general terms. And, I'm the employee in these relationships. Who hasn't found some kind of venue to vent about their current job and boss? Like I was explaining to my mom and dad, when last week I thought my world as I knew it was going to fall apart from what I've written here. Everything that I write down is something that I would say out-loud to them, or to my Grandma. It's nothing I'm ashamed of.

There was a family I was working for, at the end of 2005, who used to write me these awful emails. I wish I had kept them, so I could share, but they would turn my stomach when I read them, so they were shredded. These exchanges, coupled with completely opposite demur, and manners to my face, made it a vol-ital relationship.

As stated before, these are stories that happen to me. I don't elaborate on things, or embellish the stories. I feel like if there is anything that I can talk about about, it's how I am around children, and how they act around me.
